I'm not into the flanel, but to each his own.
I was wondering how you plan on connecting the two peices?
I have a cover that is held together by a few threads, and I'm guessing it will just rip in two sometime soon. I was thinking of gluing 3-4 elastic straps to them.

I think it would be really cool *if* your seats are done exactly the same.

I would have made the lines parrallell to the panel if I was to put plaid on there... for my separating panel (still 50% holding) I put a couple stripes of duct tape on the underside to preserve it, seams to be holding it together nicely.

what did you attach it with? some tiny, tiny screws?

I've though about that but the masonite or whatever its made of, is sooo thin.

the kit I bought (I think it was made by stanley) came with some very tiny screws. the hinge is extra strong; i use them at work all the time, I am a carpenter and I use them to make hinge bar openings. the screws are about 1/4" to 5/16" long. I painted the hinge black to match my interior, you can hardly tell it is there.
